Are you one of those chefs burning more than just your food in the kitchen? I constantly find myself burning my hands and fingers while preparing meals. Most burns suffered during cooking are either first-degree or second-degree burns. Today we are going to learn about alternative treatments you may want to try for burns.
First, let’s take a look at homeopathic remedies. Homeopathy is a medicine that was founded by Samuel Hahnemann and focuses on the principle that likes cures like. The most common homeopathic remedy for first degree burns is urtica urens. Urtica urens is used when the pain is stinging, burning and worse from warmth. If you think about it, this is very common in your typical cooking burn. Now let’s say the burn is a little worse – you grab a burning hot pot right out of the oven without an oven holder. Don’t worry! Causticum is what you may need. It’s very commonly used to treat more extensive second degree burns, the keynote symptoms for which are slow healing and blistering. Another homeopathic product to consider when suffering from a burn is calendula gel. However, homeopathy is not the only alternative treatment for burns.
Lavender Essential Oil is excellent for healing and disinfecting wounds and tissues. In fact, one of the most recognized benefits of pure lavender oil is its ability to soothe and heal burns. To apply it, dab the oil gently to the burn using your fingers or a cotton ball.
One last interesting treatment for burns includes honey. Honey has been used as a folk remedy of burns for years. It has known antibacterial activity helping to keep the wound clean and also promotes healing of the epithelium. In fact, in a randomized controlled trial, topically applied honey was found to be superior to conventional burn dressings.
So the next time you find yourself suffering from a burn, instead of reaching for the ice cubes, consider reaching for one of these alternative treatments for burns found here at LuckyVitamin.com.

Summer is fast approaching! With kids getting out of school to play in the sun and soak in the pool, let’s take a look into alternative treatments for “swimmer’s ear.”
Otitis Externa, also known as Swimmer’s Ear, is the inflammation or infection of the external ear canal. Repeated exposure to water can result in the removal of cerumen (earwax) and drying of the external auditory canal, which increases risk for infection. According to eMedicine, “Otitis externa is one of the most common medical conditions that affect aquatic athletes and pool going individuals. Individuals with allergic conditions, such as eczema, allergic rhinitis, or asthma, also have a significantly higher risk of developing this condition.”
Mild cases of otitis externa may respond well to acidifying the ear. Acidify ears with a 50% vinegar and 50% isopropyl alcohol mixture. To treat, add 5 drops, 3 times per day for 7 days into the ear canal. If you’re prone to otitis externa, 4-5 drops can be used as a preventative method post swimming and bathing.
Garlic mullein oil is a combination of herbal extractions from the plants Verbascum Thapsus (Mullein) and Allium Sativa (Garlic). Mullein flowers are sedating and reduce inflammation. Mullein oil is often used to treat earaches and is indicated for treatment of otitis externa, otitis media, and serous otitis media. Garlic is a known anti-microbial plant and is also anti-inflammatory. It is one the main antibiotic plants used by alternative doctors. Best benefits are obtained by gently heating the garlic mullein oil, or applying heat after the oil is applied inside the ear.
Allium Cepa, also known as onion, is also very anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial. A very gentle, easy and effective treatment involves boiling an onion until it is soft. Take the onion and squeeze out the juice. Allow the juice to cool until it is luke-warm and place 2 drops into the ear. You can also make your own onion poultice to the infected ear. A poultice is a soft moist mass, often heated and medicated, spread on cloth over the skin to treat an aching, inflamed or painful part of the body. To make an onion poultice, gently simmer 1/2 of a chopped onion in 1/4 cup of water for a few minutes, stirring so it won’t burn. Wrap the simmered onion in several layers of cheesecloth or a thin, soft cloth. Allow the mixture to cool just enough so it doesn’t burn the skin. Then, place over the ear for at least five minutes.
Other alternative means to treatment of otitis externa involve increasing overall immune system functions. This may include using products like Vitamin C, Zinc and Vitamin A. As always, please consult your doctor first regarding any dietary or herbal supplements or treatments you would like to try.

Homeopathy offers a safe, gentle and effective means of restoring the body to health. Homeopathy comes from the Greek words “omoios” meaning similar and “pathos” meaning suffering. Samuel Hahnemann defined homeopathy as treating disease with medicines that are chosen in accordance with the law of similars. The law of similars states that a disease can be cured by a medicine that elicits symptoms similar to those the patient experiences as healthy individual. In other words the law of similars means “like cures like.” Therefore an important aspect of homeopathy is to determine all of the symptoms the patient is experiencing or looking at the symptoms as a whole. In homeopathy this is defined as the “totality of symptoms”. A symptom in homeopathy is anything – whether it’s subjective or objective – that we experience as deviations from our normal harmonious bodily functions. If symptoms are what we classify as deviations from harmony, then what maintains this harmony?
Vitalism believes that the bodily functions are due to a vitalisitic principle existing in all living creatures. This vital principal in homeopathy is coined as the vital force and is what maintains all the functions in health; it organizes the body, it’s reactions, and everything else involved. Because no two people have the same vital force, we must not classify a disease as always presenting with the same symptoms. Therefore, each patient will get sick in slightly different manners. In homeopathy this is defined as individualization. When prescribing remedies a homeopath will prescribe a remedy that is individualized to the patient.
The common medicines of Hahnemann’s day were usually very toxic and prescribed in large doses. Hahnemann wanted to find a better way to treat his patients. He found that as long as a remedy was made under the principle that “like cures like” the size of the dose did not matter. He then found that not only were the smaller doses less harmful to the patients, they were also more effective in the treatment.
Homeopathy incorporates the principal of holism within its realm of practice. It brings a holistic approach to medicine by focusing on the totality of symptoms and treating the whole person at what is believed to be the root of the disease. By finding the root of the disease homeopathic remedies restore the individual’s vital force to it’s harmonious balance relieving it of this dis-ease.

HCG supplements have suddenly become one of the best selling weight loss products at Lucky Vitamin. As studies continue to look into its efficiency, many people are just trying to find a little bit more information about HCG.
HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) is a natural hormone generally used to assist dieters to lose weight and curb appetite. HCG interacts with the hypothalamus gland, increases metabolism and allows the body to use fat as energy. Homeopathic HCG supplements have been shown to be just as effective on the diet in aiding with weight loss as the regular HCG products.
Considered a weight loss breakthrough by many men and women, HCG is available in thousands of brands and hundreds of combinations but some HCG products have been unable to produce results for many people. HCG diets are very controversial because experts will point the reduced calorie diet plan is responsible for the weight-loss, not the product.
HGC supplements are commonly mixed with four essential amino acids which can help promote energy, fat burning, healthy skin, and appetite control. The ingredients in HCG may help promote and stimulate your body’s own natural hormone production. Even though individuals reduce their caloric intake, the body consumes as much as 3,500 additional calories each day directly from the abnormal fat stores. Hunger is rarely an issue because HCG helps curb the appetite, reducing hunger to a minimum.
Moderate exercise is highly recommended as some people may be able lose up to one pound per day, when combine with taking HGC supplements. However, the unofficial average is about 20 pounds per month, slightly less than a pound per day.
As always, it’s highly recommended that you consult with your physician before starting taking HCG supplements or any other diet program.

Shingles, also known as herpes zoster, is a disease caused by the virus Varicella zoste, the same virus that triggers chickenpox. Shingles causes painful inflamed blisters to break out with eruptions appearing on parts of the back, sides, abdomen, and sometimes on the face.
Symptoms include pain and itching, prior to the appearance of a severely painful skin rash of red, fluid-filled blisters that later crust over. The rash is typically located on the trunk or face and only affects one side of the body. Pain may resolve rapidly or persist in the area of the rash for months to years after the rash disappears.
Shingles usually affects the elderly or people with compromised immune function. Nerve pain that persists after other symptoms have cleared is called postherpetic neuralgia. Although no cure exists, treatments are available to relieve the rash and nerve pain.
A few number of self-care steps may be helpful to treat shingles. Consider a topical ointment to soothe pain, applying products containing capsaicin, a substance found in cayenne peppers. The hot component of cayenne pepper, known as capsaicin, is topically used to relieve the pain of postherpetic neuralgia.
You can also try peppermint oil for topical use for postherpetic neuralgia. One case report has been published concerning an elderly woman with postherpetic neuralgia who experienced dramatic pain relief from topical application of 2 to 3 drops of peppermint oil to the affected area 3 or 4 times per day.
Additionally, homeopathic remedies are often very helpful for pain relief and recovery. The following homeopathic substances may help treating rashes: arsenicum album, apis mellifica, clematix, iris versicolor, mezereum, ranunculus bulbosus, and rhus toxicodendron. Although homeopathic remedies are generally not known to cause serious side effects, discuss any new treatment program with your healthcare practitioner.

Allergies are common in the spring and early summer but many people suffer from allergies in the fall months. The allergy triggers might be slightly different in the fall, but some people feel the same symptoms of allergies such as runny nose, sneezing and itchy eyes. Fall allergies are generally caused by mold, ragweed and dust mites.
Mold is one of the main triggers for fall allergies as its spores can easily get airborne. Mold thrives in damp areas such as piles of leaves in yards and streets and basements and bathrooms at home.
Ragweed is the biggest allergy trigger in the fall. This yellow-flowering weed typically begins pollinating in August but it can linger well into the fall months. Most people who are allergic to spring pollen-producing plants are also allergic to ragweed and its pollen can travel for hundreds of miles on the wind.
Dust mites are another common indoor allergen but are more frequent in summer months. Dust mites continue to make their way into your nose during the fall, triggering sneezes, wheezes, and runny noses.
Understanding allergies is quite simple. When foreign invaders enter the nose, the immune system mistakenly releases antibodies, which attack the allergens, leading to the release of chemicals called histamines into the blood. Histamines trigger the runny nose, itchy eyes.
Homeopathic allergy products are one of the best ways to prevent allergies in the fall. Many people do not feel comfortable taking regular allergy products because of some of the ingredients used.
However, homeopathic supplements for allergy relief work with your body trying to stimulate the natural defenses and are safe to be taken daily.

Parents will always protect their babies. It’s human nature.
Animals are the same way, protecting their puppies against potential predators.
Treating children is a challenge. Many parents are concerned when giving their kids over-the-counter drugs.
Unlike adults, babies may not be able to inform their conditions, such as how sick they feel, or what part of the body is hurting. The lack of communication is definitely a major concern for parents.
Homeopathic medicines have been for used for years to support multiple health issues. It’s the safest way to self treat issues such as the common cold, cough and flu.
Homeopathic products do not contain any questionable ingredients for use in youngsters. There’s no side effects and no risk of overdose. These wonderful natural medicines do not interact with other medicines and do no make children jittery or drowsy.
How is possible for a product to promote significant results and, at the same time, be 100% safe to use by children?
The secret of homeopathic is the ability to activate the body’s natural defenses to rebalance itself and heal.
Homeopathy is a form of alternative medicine used to treat an ill person by using a substance that can produce, in a healthy person, symptoms similar to those of the illness. Think of it like treating a snake bite with diluted snake poison, or a flu shot.
For example, a cough suppressant works against the body. A homeopathic cough syrup acts as an expectorant, helping the body to do what it does best to heal itself.
The number of health complications caused by giving regular medication to children has increased in the recent years and so have the parents’ concerns. Confusing directions, unsafe ingredients, reactions with other substances and overdose are just a few reasons parent should stay away from conventional drugs.
Some parents still hesitate before buying homeopathic products, especially for their kids. The main reason for the disbelief in homeopathy is the lack of information on these products by the mass media. However, homeopathic companies take safety as a priority on the production of their medicines.
Boiron, the world leader in homeopathy, offers several reliable medicines to safely ease children’s winter woes during the always busy flu season.
Boiron has been treating and healing for more than 75 years and their products are sold in more than 80 countries. The top-selling products are Oscillococcinum, a flu medicine, and Arnicare, a line of pain relievers.
The majority of products are not body-mass dependent, consequently there’s no need to give more or less medicine based on the children’s body weight. As a pharmaceutical company, Boiron maintains the highest standards in manufacturing, complying with U.S.Food and Drug Administration – FDA – regulations, the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States and drug Good Manufacturing Practices.
Boiron’s has become the leading US homeopathic medicines supplier, providing top products and making homeopathics available to consumers and physicians. Boiron’s staff consists of medical doctors, pharmacists, and lab technicians.
It’s time to give homeopathic products a chance to make your life healthier. Look for Boiron products next time you are shopping, particularly for your kids and enjoy the success of safe and effective homeopathic medicines.

Understanding homeopathy is one of the most difficult tasks when shopping for natural supplements because homeopathic products are very confusing.
LuckyBlog has decided to help our customers, providing a quick guide for homeopathy. A simple guideline to be used by anyone, from first time buyers to long time supplements shoppers.
Homeopathy is a form of alternative medicine used to treat an ill person by using a substance that can produce, in a healthy person, symptoms similar to those of the illness. Think of it like treating a snake bite with diluted snake poison, or a flu shot.
The most confusing part of homeopathy is the strength of products. Labels generally have numbers representing a serial dilution to remove the toxic effects of the substance and to retain the essential qualities.
Vitamins and minerals use milligrams, micrograms and International Units – IU.
Homeopathic products, however, use a unique measurement system. All potencies are indicated with roman numerals. X is for 10, C for 100. You also find regular numbers, such as 6, 9 and 30, associated to roman numerals.
For example, 6X means one part product to 10 (representing the X) parts distilled water is diluted 6 times. A product labeled as 30X has basically the same process but repeated 30 times.
You may think that the more diluted a product is, the weaker is the strength of the product. Wrong.
In homeopathy the more diluted a product is, the stronger it is; therefore, X is stronger than C and C is stronger than M.
In addition, the original dilution is done several times and, as a result, the more times the product is diluted, the stronger it is. As a result, 30 is stronger than 9 and 9 is stronger than 6. The strongest product is 30M or 1:30 1000 times.
Stronger products (30s) are used for acute conditions and are not recommended for long term use. Weaker products (6s) are used for ongoing chronic conditions and may be taken on a regular basis.

The power of touch is an unexplainable phenomenon. With the slightest contact, you can be soothed, aroused, reassured, angered or alerted. You can be made aware of the presence of a stranger or comforted by the arrival of a loved one. One finger can elicit immeasurable emotion, good or bad. So is it any wonder that practitioners throughout the country are employing it to heal?
Healing touch therapy, although largely publicly unknown, is a growing trend in U.S. hospitals, spas, private facilities and treatment centers. It is being used to reduce stress, calm anxiety, decrease pain, strengthen the immune system, enhance recovery, aid treatment for neck and back problems, deepen spiritual awareness and create a sense of wellbeing. Patients are swearing by it, alleging that it is better than pills as it doesn’t just take away your pain. It gives you a feeling of calm and an overall sense of goodness. Doctors don’t understand why it works or how, but they see it make a difference and so they won’t stop you from receiving it.
Before your first session, you may anticipate something akin to a massage, but what you’ll experience is very different. The practitioner may never touch, guiding her hands over your body, hovering but never contacting. If she does rest her fingers, she will do so lightly, pausing for no more than a moment at each landing. The idea is to balance your energy, the waves of electricity that emanate around you and interact constantly with your environment. By the end of your 30 minutes, you will have been taken to such a state of calm that sleep will be likely. Your pain, depression, anxiety or targeted ailment will have been assuaged. You will have been healed by the power of touch.

More often than not, needles are associated with causing pain. When you are vaccinated, have your ears pierced or get a tattoo, you try to distract yourself from the metal pressing into your skin. You look away, close your eyes, bite your lip or dig your nail into another finger all in an effort to pretend that the needle does not hurt, but it does. Needles correspond with pain, and yet millions of Americans have voluntarily had them inserted into their bodies, hoping to alleviate that same pain. What were those people thinking?
They were thinking that if a procedure has lasted thousands of years, with growing popularity rather than diminishing, it must be worth trying. And, they were right. Acupuncture has been a mainstay in traditional Chinese medicine since its development. It’s based on the ideas of yin, yang and qi. The body is a balance between yin (passivity) and yang (activity). When the balance is disrupted, qi or vital energy is blocked from the pathways or meridians in your body, leading to different levels and types of pain. Acupuncture reopens the pathways by stimulating the points along your body that connect to them. It is often used in conjunction, with other treatments, for anything from hiccups to sinusitis to paralysis. However, recent studies show that the procedure may not need accompaniments. It may, on its own, work better than traditional Western medication.
Researchers in Germany divided 1,100 lower-back pain sufferers into three groups. Two of the groups received acupuncture, some real, some fake. The third group was treated with varying methods including injections, painkillers, massage and physical therapy. While only 27 percent of the final group reported improvement, more than 40 percent in both of the other two experienced reduced pain and disability improvement. The fact that some of the participants received sham acupuncture, where needles were not inserted as deeply or at specific acupuncture points, implies that some of the effect is mental. However, the case for acupuncture is still strong, and you can hardly argue with history. So, why not reverse your opinion on needles? Associate them with eliminating pain rather than inducing. You might very well be better off.

As summer segues into fall and fall into winter, the weather seems to continually flip flop. One day it is bright, sunny and temperate. The next it is steamy, humid and muggy, and the day after that brings rain, fog and chill. The incessant changes wreak havoc on all of us, causing headaches, sinus infections and general confusion. But for the 20 million Americans with asthma, it is even worse. Roller-coasting temperatures and levels of humidity are one of the most common triggers of an asthma attack and one that can rarely be avoided. Other triggers, however, are not quite as uncontrollable, as long as you know what they are.
In addition to changing temps, upper respiratory infections, strenuous exercise, certain medications, some foods and strong emotions can incite an asthma attack. Inhaled allergens, particularly pollen, animal dander and mold, are also extremely common triggers. In fact, a recent study found that removing mold from homes and improving ventilation lessened both inhaler use and asthma symptoms in all of its participants. Avoiding these particles, then, would be an excellent idea, and avoiding them in conjunction with electro-smog would be even better. The reason for that is when these particles are charged by electrical fields, from computers and other everyday electronics, they stick more readily to the lung’s and respiratory tract’s tissue; this increases the chance of infections and respiratory complications, such as an asthma attack. So, the hours you spend in front of your computer each day could be making you more reliant on your inhaler. But, how do you know for sure if that’s the trigger?
The easiest way to determine your triggers is to pay attention. Look at past history. What was present the last several times you had an attack? If you had been in contact with animals or had recently taken an anti-inflammatory, you will know that you should avoid either animal dander or that medication. f the triggers aren’t quite as clear, you can talk to your doctor about skin and blood tests. Attacks don’t always occur immediately after contact and that can cause a lot of uncertainty. Just make sure that you are informed and aware of your body’s workings. An asthma attack can easily transform from mild wheezing to a severe medical problem. Control your asthma; don’t let it control you.

Not too long ago, smoking was the end all be all of style. Every movie star put a cigarette to their lips at least once during every film. Kids were only cool if they had a pack of Lucky Strikes in their back pocket. And advertisements proudly proclaimed the multitude of benefits smoking brought you. However, times have changed. While stars still light up on camera, it doesn’t happen nearly as often, and it’s certainly not viewed as the glamorous act it once was. Anti-smoking groups crowd high school hallways, and “he smokes” is no longer a point in a date’s favor. As for the advertisements, there haven’t been any on TV or the radio since 1971. And since 1999, all of the pro-smoking billboards have been replaced with anti-smoking ones. Why the turn around? In case you haven’t heard, smoking is bad for you.

Have an itch? Try not to scratch it. Then pay close attention as the itching sensation becomes even greater, almost painful, and completely unbearable. What if this itching sensation was not a momentary, passing discomfort? What if the itching were chronic and lasted throughout the night, to the point that you were unable to sleep or feel relaxed for even a matter of seconds? Chronic itch is a dilemma that many people face on a daily basis, including those with skin disorders and conditions such as eczema, as well as those patients with kidney failure or liver disease. Oftentimes, the chronic itching can actually be caused by painkillers used in conjunction with treatments for serious conditions such as cancer.
Researchers at the University of Washington School of Medicine have discovered the gene linked to itchiness, which may lead to further breakthroughs in alleviating the discomfort experienced by those plagued with chronic itch. This gene, GRPR, is associated with both itch and pain, and more research could determine how to curb itching while not interfering with the body’s detection and response to pain. Antihistamine drugs work for itchiness associated with insect bites and other allergies, but many other maladies are not related to histamines, and thus cannot be treated with these drugs. New research has found that drugs that block opioid receptors in the brain can often curb itchiness in some patients with the likes of kidney failure and liver disease.

Whether you’re training for the Ironman Triathlon or looking to do that 5K walk/run for a local cause, it’s nearly impossible to avoid some sports related pain or injury at one point in your exercise routine. Once you start experiencing pain, it becomes difficult to continue working out with the same dedication and intensity. Resting can help calm sore muscles, yet recovering for over 48 hours will allow the body to start slipping downhill from its peak state. Major injuries require rest before more permanent damage sets in that could inhibit future physical activity. Yet, for those regular bouts of muscle stiffness and pain, products such as Peaceful Mountain’s Muscle Rescue Gel and Boericke and Tafel Sports Gel do the trick to get you back to the gym and back on your game. Both products utilize natural ingredients to help sooth pain and inflammation, keeping muscles feeling great for your next workout.

Going vegan isn’t just to save the animals anymore. It may just save your face. Dermatologists are uncovering more and more evidence that milk products increase the likelihood of developing acne. Cow milk contains hormones that when ingested by the human body is converted to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Dihydrotestosterone is a potent form of testosterone that increases the production of oils by the sebaceous glands that then become clogged whereby bacteria enter, often resulting in acne.
Dermatologists like Dr. Bill Danby of Dartmouth Medical School often recommend that patients may help clear up the progression of acne by eliminating milk products from their diet. Yet, several factors contribute to this skin condition. Many people are genetically prone to acne, followed by the two other factors whereby the reproductive organs and the adrenal glands contribute to skin eruptions by creating an overabundance of oils that can clog pores. Dairy products act much the same way as the latter two contributors. Eliminating dairy removes one factor that exacerbates acne, allowing a dermatologist to help patients rectify any remaining problems and eliminate acne altogether.
